NEW DELHI: BCCI has sent a notice to Harbhajan Singh for violating the code of conduct on the field. He has to reply to the notice by Monday.

Sreesanth wept on the field after Harbhajan Singh slapped him on Friday night during an IPL match.

It all happened after Kings XI Punjab won their first match of the DLF Indian Premier League beating the Mumbai Indians.

Upset over the row between Mumbai stand-in captain Harbhajan Singh and Punjab paceman S Sreesanth, Indian Premier League Chairman Lalit Modi on Saturday said it was a "serious matter" and was not good for the cash-rich Twenty20 tournament.

But Modi said the IPL committee would wait foar an official report on the matter before deciding about their next action in the issue.

"It looks like a serious matter the way it's being shown on television channels but I can't say anything now. In any tournament it should not happen, it's unfortunate what happened yesterday," Modi told reporters in Chandigarh.

Modi, however, said the IPL committee could take any decision only after receiving an official report on the matter as picture was still not clear about what exactly happened between the two players last night.

NEW DELHI: Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh has said the incident between him and Sreesanth Shanthakumaran was over. "It is not such a big issue the way people are making it out to be," he told television channels.

The Indian media had reported that Harbhajan had slapped the young fast bowler.

"Harbhajan came back to the dressing room and apologised to Sreesanth," Mohali captain Yuvraj Singh told reporters.

Meanwhile, Sreesanth has said Harbhajan is like his elder brother.

Television pictures showed Sreesanth sobbing at the end of the game late on Friday after his Mohali team defeated Mumbai, which is captained by Harbhajan.

How would this effect the reptuation of the ICL, this still remains to be seen. Anyways next time Sreesanth would be more careful before talking to his bigger brother.

Let me tell according to what I had gather from our Local News channel. News channel had taken account of that grim incident by interviewing both Sreesanth and Bhajji. In an interview, Sreesanth said that after completion of that match, Sreesanth went to the Bhajji and said Hard Luck for this match, the moment Sree said this, Bhajji got infurious and gave a tight slap upon the face of Sreesanth. Since Bhajji was quite angry upon his teams poor performance.

Definetly now Bhajji has got banned from playing in IPL for a now, and IPL is also following the code of conduct according to ICC laws and policies. If Bhajji is truly alleged and found guilty then he will either get 10 matches ban or Liftime Banned from playing both International and Domestic Cricket including IPL.

But this seems more like a Publicity Stunts in order to create much more spice and sensationlism in the IPL. But whatever the reason there could be, Bhajji has truly shown his Bad sportsmanship.

Post a youtube video.

I think even if video ever available then only it will not be telecasted on Television. I think whoever managed to sneak and got the video shooting of this incident might be able to earn an heafty bucks from the media.

I think well deserved after all those monkey victories.

Oh so Punjab Royals sounds you Monkey. Even Pakistani Cricketer are the part of IPL, with which name you would like to refer Pakistani Player?

I believe he sledged Kamran Akmal to on his first match.

Yes, but at that time Yuvaraj definetly had fumed some spicy words about that Sreeshant wordings.
